Tadej Pogacar wins sprint from elite group to win Tre Valli Varesine
CyclingTuesday, 04 October 2022 at 16:48
UAE Team Emirates have taken a strong team into the Italian Autumn classics, and they have brought some profit today at Tre Valli Varesine as Tadej Pogacar took the win out on the road.
The race saw constant attacks from several figures, including dangerous late moves from Enric Mas and Vincenzo Nibali who looked to take advantage of the many opportunities there were to attack the race. However it was all meant to come down to a sprint at the end.
There, Tadej Pogacar was the strongest in the group, taking his first win following the World Championships and just in time for Il Lombardia. Sergio Higuita and Alejandro Valverde completed the podium in a tight sprint.

- They're often referred to as bike fitting specialists, Mau.. Just Google "bike fitting" and you'll find the basic things you need to consider. In general, shorter cranks allows you to spin the pedals better (higher cadence, ala Tadej), at the expense of torque (like when you stand on the pedals, ala Jonas). It allows the bike geometry to be altered such that the rider is closer to the ground (more aero) because the bike's bottom bracket can be set lower to the ground. Just my 2-cents worth.FredMan27-06-2025
- What a really dumb question, 8 days before the TDF. Did he think XDS Astana team would be only 3 riders. Really have to wonder about some people.
Senna196027-06-2025 - Please give feedback if you do, Not sure what they’re officially called as I’ve never been to one but to anyone who’s been to any of these specialist bike posture outfits that claim to optimise your position and bike for you, did any of them do any testing with varying crank lengths? Never heard any such feedback from people I listened to.Mistermaumau26-06-2025
- Your answer wasn’t stupid, it was just unnecessarily vulgar that’s all, especially given that in an article practically devoid of text it said starting list 3 times with your preliminary almost hidden in a long list of repeated names not many would bother to look at. Hope you pay as much attention to the small print of your insurance policy and the like, they may not be as vulgar in answering but, well, one day you’ll remember this ;-)Mistermaumau26-06-2025
- As I proposed, Remco to wreak havoc before the mountain stages where Jonas foes hos job, forcing Pog to compete during the whole 3 weeks and maybe crack again. A bit like when the DV brothers ganged up against Merckx.Mistermaumau26-06-2025

- I'm exploring shorter cranks even in MTB because of limited hip mobility due to how my hips are. I haven't ridden them yet, but my experience with 170 over 175 is that 170 is a lot more comfortable in a low position. I bet that going even shorter is going to be really beneficial for me.JoshuaCharter26-06-2025
